"When I sit down at my writing desk, time seems to vanish," author Erica Jong once said.

Real World Beauty
Yet writing desks have a more basic appeal as well. Be it an ornate French antique made of carved walnut or a sleek contemporary model designed with the modern office specifically in mind, writing desks artfully combine usefulness and sophistication.
What better way to demonstrate your unique taste than with that sense of cultivated elegance mixed with a tantalizing hint of secrecy and romanticism that only a writing desk can bring to your home?
